I am having trouble using selecting from this select element.
<select name="vehicle_attrs[position_count]" class="mb1"><option>Position / Quantity</option><option>Front</option><option>Rear</option></select>
I have tried
select('Front', :from=>'mb1')
select('Front', :from=>'vehicle_attrs[position_count]')
select('Front', :from=>'vehicle_attrs[1]')
All of them result in a can not find selection box error
I've never liked how restrictive Capybara's concept of a 'locator' is (i.e. must have a name/id/label), but if you dig into the source code, those helpful methods like select, click_on, and fill_in are just wrappers for find and some native method of Element, which takes arbitrary CSS, and works in almost all situations. In this case, you could use:
find('[name="vehicle_attrs[position_count]"]').find('option', text: 'Front').select_option
Since dropdowns often have multiple similar options, where one is a substring of the other, you might consider using an exact string match, like
find('[name="vehicle_attrs[position_count]"]').find('option', text: /\AFront\z/).select_option
From the docs for select - https://www.rubydoc.info/github/teamcapybara/capybara/Capybara/Node/Actions#select-instance_method - we can see that the from option takes "The id, Capybara.test_id atrtribute, name or label of the select box".
Neither 'mb1' or 'vehicle_attrs[1]' are any of those so they would be expected to fail.
'vehicle_attrs[position_count]' is the name so assuming the box is actually visible on the page (not replaced with a JS driven select widget, etc), that should work. If it doesn't, then edit your question and add the full exact error message you get when trying to use it. Of course if there is only one select box on the page with an option of 'Front' then you don't need to specify the from option at all and can just do
select 'Front'
Am new to Sikuli and trying to Automate Citirx Application. Need Help
Am trying to select a user role in a screen, The screen has multiple roles and hence i need to scroll down the screen and search for a particular Role and click the Role.
I have Captured image of a Particular Role that i need to select and used below Code. In the second Image i have highlighted the Role i need to select in Red
Below is the Code an Trying:
Creating a Method:
public static boolean clipExist(Screen screen, String clip )
{
Match m = screen.exists(clip);
if(m != null)
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
Using the Method:
while(! clipExist(screen, "C:\\Users\\Satish_D1\\workspace\\Sikuli Demo\\Images\\DownArrow.PNG"))
{
screen.wheel(1 , 3);
if(clipExist(screen, "C:\\Users\\Satish_D1\\workspace\\Sikuli Demo\\Images\\Roles\\UK\\ENTP\\GEDIS_SALES_SUPPORT_ORL_CPF2.0_UK_ENTP.PNG"))
{
screen.doubleClick("C:\\Users\\Satish_D1\\workspace\\Sikuli Demo\\Images\\Roles\\UK\\ENTP\\GEDIS_SALES_SUPPORT_ORL_CPF2.0_UK_ENTP.PNG",0);
break;
}
}
The image recognision uses per default a similarity of 0.7 (see description of Patterns in SikuliX Documentation). That means SikuliX looks for 'pretty similar' images. You can specify the similarity for the pattern recognision thanks to the method similar, or in your case use the method exact.
In your method clipExist, you should replace the name of the image:
Match m = screen.exists(clip);
by:
Match m = screen.exists(Pattern(clip).exact())
It seems SikuliX 1.1 experience some problem with finding the text on a screen, but recognition works. You might want to scan the entire text screen by screen and split the lines. Next compare each line with the required role and save the degree of similarity. Select the line with the biggest similarity. In Python/Jython exists a special function for that in difflib module.
similarity = difflib.SequenceMatcher(None, string_a, string_b)
Here are the alternatives that you can do.
First alternative: capture scrollbar
Capture the down arrow in the scrollbar
Capture the image when you reach the end of scrollbar. The image contains the scroll progress and the down arrow of the scrollbar
Click down arrow until you find image of (2)
This method have drawback i.e. when the number of items are dynamic, the visual appearance of (2) will be different especially the scroll progress. However, this can be tricked by capturing only the lower part of scroll progress and the arrow. Please note that your mouse may make difficulty in (3) because you may not find (2) when it is covered by mouse. To handle this, every time you click down arrow, you may hover your mouse a bit before checking for (2). This is the complete script:
down_arrow = "downarrow.png"
complete_scroll = "completescroll.png"
while not exists(complete_scroll):
click(down_arrow)
hover(Location(300, 200))
Second alternative, use keyboard (down key)
Click anywhere in the items to be scrolled and do some type(Key.DOWN) for the number of item you have. In case you have dynamic number of item, you may do type(Key.DOWN) for any number that always bigger than your number of items. Here is the script to do
inside_item = "inside.png"
for n in range(10000):
type(Key.DOWN)
Hope it helps
I used 's' as a screen class reference. Hence, once we get an image then we will set the region for the same followed by the required image where you want to click
public static void main(String args[])
{
Match m = s.find("IMAGE");
Region r = new Region(m.x+11, m.y+22,12,12);
r.click();
s.find("ENTPIMAGE.PNG");
r.click("ENTPIMAGE.PNG");
}
I want to receive separate click events from separate lines in a text field, and every time a certain line is clicked by the user, I would like to highlight it and have an event happen.
I would ideally like this to happen with dynamic text, and not have to break the text apart by hand. Using the htmlText property is an option, but I am unsure as to how to bind clickEvents to separate elements.
Where do I begin?
There is no ready to use solution for this. But you can make it yourself using a few things:
set CLICK listener for the whole text field
listen for click and check the caretIndex property
use getLineIndexOfChar to check what's the line of the current caret position
use getLineOffset and getLineLength to get the position of the first and last character of that line
use setSelection to highlight this line
There might be some faster and easier way, but this is what works for sure :)
EDIT: decided to post the solution code, as I was wondering how exactly it works.. and it would be a shame to just leave it unpublished and make you do it instead :)
field.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onTfClicked);
function onTfClicked(e:MouseEvent):void {
trace (field.caretIndex);
var line:uint = field.getLineIndexOfChar(field.caretIndex);
var start:uint = field.getLineOffset(line);
var end:uint = start + field.getLineLength(line);
field.setSelection(start, end);
}
I've been trying Vim for any text editing work for almost a week now. I want to know the fastest way to select a C function definition.
For example, if I have a function like this:
void helloworlds( int num )
{
int n;
for ( n = 0; n < num; ++n ) {
printf( "Hello World!\n" );
}
}
How would I be able to delete the whole definition including the function name?
As is common in Vim, there are a bunch of ways!
Note that the first two solutions depend on an absence of blank lines.
If your cursor is on the line with the function name, try d}. It will delete everything to the next block (i.e. your function body).
Within the function body itself, dap will delete the 'paragraph'.
You can delete a curly brace block with da}. (If you like this syntax, I recommend Tim Pope's fantastic surround.vim, which adds more features with a similar feel).
You could also try using regular expressions to delete until the next far left-indented closing curly brace: d/^}Enter
]] and [[ move to the next/previous first-column curly brace (equivalent to using / and ? with that regex I mentioned above. Combine with the d motion, and you acheive the same effect. In addons like Python-mode, these operators are redefined to mean exactly what you're looking for: move from function to function.
How to delete the whole block, header included
If you're on the header/name, or the line before the block, da} should do the trick.
If you're below a block, you can also make use of the handy 'offset' feature of a Vim search. d?^{?-1 will delete backwards to one line before the first occurrence of a first-column opening curly brace. This command's a bit tricky to type. Maybe you could make a <leader> shortcut out of it.
Plugins
I don't do much C programming in Vim, but there are surely plugins to help with such a thing. Try Vim Scripts or their mirror at GitHub.
To delete an entire function, including its definition, such as:
function tick() {
// ...
}
Move to the line with the function name.
Move the cursor to the opening brace, f{ should do it, or simply $.
Press V%d (Visual line, move to matching pair, delete)
If your functions look like this:
function tick()
{
// ...
}
Move to the line with the function name.
Press J (join the current line with line bellow. This also puts your cursor at the last character on the resulting line, {, just the one we need for the next command.)
Press V%d (Visual line, move to matching pair, delete.)
or
Move to the line with the function name.
Press V[Down]%d (Visual line, move one line down, move to matching pair, delete.)
If you are willing to install plugins vim-textobj-function will give you vif for Visual select Inside Function and vaf for Visual select A Function.
daf will delete the function, both the line with the signature and the function body ({})
The text object defined by this plugin are more specific and they don't rely on the function body being a contiguous block of text or { being placed at the first character on the line.
The drawback is that you depend on an external plugin.
You can use this shortcut to delete not only the function, also the lines between curly braces, i.e the code between if-else statements,while,for loops ,etc.
Press Shitf + v [Will get you in visual Mode] at the curly brace start/end.
Then Press ] + } i.e ] + Shitf ] - If you are in start brace.
Then Press [ + { i.e [ + Shitf [ - If you are in end brace.
Then DEL to delete the lines selected.
The simplest and most direct way way is as follows (works anywhere inside function):
v enter visual mode
{ move to first brace in function (may have to press more than once)
o exchange cursor from top to bottom of selection
} extend selection to bottom of function
d delete selected text
The complete command sequence would be v{o}d. Note that you can do other operations besides delete the same way. For example, to copy the function, use y (yank) instead of d.
Use this simple way
1.Go to the function definition
2.dd - delete function definition
3.d -start delete operation
4.shift+5(%) - delete the lines between { to }
If your function were separated by the blank lines, just type:
dip
which means "delete inner paragraph".
Another way is to go to the line of the start of your function and hit: Vj% (or V%% if your style puts the opening brace on the same line). This puts you into Visual-Line mode and the percent takes you to the matching closing brace. In the second style, the first % takes you to the opening brace on the line that you selected and the second to its matching closing brace.
Also works for parentheses, brackets, C-style multi-line comments and preprocessor directives.
See the manual for more info.
Pre-condition: be somewhere inside the function.
Go to the previous closing curly bracket on the first line using
[]
Then delete down to the next closing curly bracket on the first line using
d][
Most posted methods have a downside or two. Usually, when working withing a class definition of some object oriented language, you might not have an empty line after the function body, because many code formatters put the closing braces of last method and class on consecutive lines. Also, you might have annotations on top of the function. To make matters worse, there might be empty lines within your function body. Additionally you'd prefer a method that works with the cursor anywhere within the function, because having to move it to a specific line or worse, character, takes valuable time. Imagine something like
public class Test {
/* ... */
#Test
public void testStuff() {
// given
doSetup();
// when
doSomething();
// then
assertSomething();
}
}
In this scenario, vap won't do you any good, since it stops at the first empty line within your function. v{o} is out for the same reason. va{V is better but doesn't catch the annotation on top of the method. So what I would do in the most general case is va{o{. va{ selects the whole function body (caveat: if your cursor is within a nested block, for instance an inner if statement, then you'll only get that block), o puts the cursor to the beginning of the selection and { selects the whole paragraph prepending your selection. This means you'll get the function definition, all annotations and doc comments.
the most easy way I found is:
Get to the line where the function starts and do this: ^^vf{% to mark the entire function and then whatever you like.
^^ - start of the line
v - start visual mode
f - jump to the next search character
{ - this is the search character
% - jump to the closing brackets
This is also very logical after you have used it a few times.
non-visual way:
d/^}/e
... delete by searching for } at line beining, including it for deletion.
without /e (not mentioned in above answers), solution is incomplete.
with /e - searching goes to end of match, so closing bracket is included, and command is well for yanking too:
y/^}/e
if you use neovim version :>0.5
the modern way is to use treesitter and build your model, then you can be selected or yanked or deleted...
Tree-sitter is a parser generator tool and an incremental parsing library. It can build a concrete syntax tree for a source file and efficiently update the syntax tree as the source file is edited
I suggested this video on youtube to learn how to use treesitter to build your model : Let's create a Neovim plugin using Treesitter and Lua
I tried all the top answers here, but none of them works except the one by Nick which suggests to press f{ to get to the opening curly brace. Then V%d to delete the whole function.
Note that, the whole function gets yanked, so you can paste it elsewhere. I come across this use-case frequently, especially when moving if blocks inside another.
I use this map. It work for me
"delete function definition
"only support function body surround by {}
nnoremap <LEADER>df {v/{<cr>%d
I'd be happy to have very soft character ">>" instead of white-space, like this:
Mono develop http://primates.ximian.com/~miguel/pictures/Valabinding-classpad.png
How can I achieve that in Emacs?
EDIT: Just realized that blank-mode is superseded by whitespace. Load this and customize whitespace-style to at least contain tabs and tabs-mark. I currently have:
(setq whitespace-style '(trailing tabs newline tab-mark newline-mark))
There is also blank-mode which allows you to achive what you want and it gives you some nice functions to cleanup the whitespace to your likings:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/BlankMode
On my Emacs version (24.3) no additional modules are needed. It's enough to launch
M-x whitespace-mode
To customize go to whitespace-style variable help,
C-h C-h v whitespace-style
This mode has many functionalities. To made it simpler one may choose not to use `Face visualization'.
Use "M-:" (M-x eval-expression) and enter the following expression:
(let ((d (make-display-table)))
(aset d 9 (vector ?> ?>))
(set-window-display-table nil d))
To get back to normal enter:
(set-window-display-table nil nil)
Google search brought up show whitespace-mode. Haven't tried it myself.
